Chapter 344 Things That Should Not Be Done
Lan Yin was also surprised and said, "Do we even need to look for it? It doesn't take a brain to guess who would kidnap someone at this time."
Yao Ruolan is not an important person. How many people in this world would be interested in her?
Ji Yunshu felt that Zhao Heng was really spoiled. He couldn't even figure out such a small thing, so how could he accomplish anything big?
She even felt a little sympathy for Yao.
Princess Taining did not hide the fact that she took her daughter away from the Marquis' Mansion in the middle of the night.
So Zhao Heng pushed Wei Yuanmin with his own hands, and the fact that Wei Yuanmin had a miscarriage soon became known to everyone.
People in the capital were most fond of such gossip, so the unspeakable things between Mr. Zhao and his cousin soon became a hot topic.
Three days later, Zhao Heng still hadn't found Yao Ruolan, so he didn't go to the princess's mansion to apologize.
When Ji Yunshu went to pay her respects to Yao Ruolan, Yao Ruolan actually asked her, "When you insisted on breaking off the engagement, were you thinking of this day?"
Although there was a hint of fatigue between Ji Yunshu's brows, his tone was calm and he sounded quite emotional.
She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Madam, you're joking. I don't have such foresight. I just felt that the Second Young Master didn't take me seriously enough, so I married the Crown Prince just to prove myself."
Yao said somewhat dejectedly, "You little girls are all very temperamental."
After saying that, he smiled to himself, "I was wrong. You are all the people your parents hold in their hands. Why do you think you should be wronged? You should know everything about Heng Ge'er and his wife. Now there are all kinds of rumors outside. What do you think we should do?"
Ji Yunshu stroked the teacup in his hand and asked in confusion, "Ah, what should I do?"
She really wanted to say, "What does this have to do with me?", but in the end she was worried about confronting him directly.
Yao gave her a deep look and said, "You can't write two Zhao characters with one stroke. Heng'er is the prince's younger brother after all. If his bad reputation gets out, it will not benefit anyone else in the mansion."
Ji Yunshu said, "The Second Young Master has acted absurdly for the sake of Miss Yao more than once or twice. We already know what we should know. Madam, there is no need to worry."
Yao took a sip of tea and said, "I don't have anything to worry about. Anyway, this mansion will be handed over to you and the prince in the future."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Speaking of this, I have to thank Madam for all your hard work for our family, which has allowed me to have such a leisurely life."
It was impossible for Yao to hand over the power of housekeeper at this time, so she could only swallow it in her chest and digest it herself.
After Ji Yunshu left, she couldn't help but ask her mother beside her: "What do you think she is thinking? It's been more than a year since she got married, and she doesn't think about the housekeeper, and her pregnancy is not moving."
She had never seen any lady in the capital like this.
Her mother couldn't figure it out either: "I heard that the affairs in her courtyard are also managed by the nanny sent by the Queen Mother. Maybe she is not good at housekeeping."
Yao shook her head. "Impossible! She's opened a medicine shop and a restaurant this year, and business is booming. How could someone who doesn't know how to manage a household do this?"
Besides, how could a girl raised by the Empress Dowager herself not know about household affairs?
"Maybe she's young and doesn't want to worry. Think about her in the palace, the Queen Mother treated her like the apple of her eye. After she married into the Marquis's Mansion, the old servant looked after her, and the Crown Prince also held her in the palm of his hand. How could a girl who grew up in such a honey pot understand the importance of power?"
Yao felt that she had never understood Ji Yunshu, and sighed, "Sometimes people really have to believe in fate."
If they had married Ji Yunshu at the beginning, the Ji family might have been in their pocket by now.
pity……
My mother also knew about Yao's plan and said regretfully, "Who said it wasn't? But it's useless to say these things now. She won't respond. The second young master is so eager to turn the entire capital upside down in order to find his cousin. It would be unreasonable if we don't go to the Princess's Mansion. What should we do?"
Yao said, "Do you think Heng'er still can't figure out who kidnapped Ruolan? He acted impulsively before because he was sure I would clean up his mess. Now, I may not have a say in the eldest princess."
Mom was a little worried: "Will the Second Young Master do anything he shouldn't do?"
Yao said, "I've sent someone to keep an eye on him. I also want to see how far he can go for Ruolan."
It's not that she hasn't thought about getting rid of Yao Ruolan directly. No matter how close her niece is, she has to come after her son.
But she didn't know what would happen if Zhao Heng lost Yao Ruolan, and she didn't dare to take the risk.
You can only try it little by little.
"But what about the young master's reputation?"
Speaking of this, Yao couldn't help but frown. "I've spoiled him too much before. Anyway, he can't take any path that requires reputation. It's time to let him see what people outside are like. Will they give him face because he is the son of a marquis?"
Mom hesitated: "Do you want the young master to follow the path of the prince?"
Yao touched her face and sighed, "In the blink of an eye, I have become old and ugly. I wonder how much favor I still have in front of the prince?"
Mom smiled and said, "Look at what you said. The prince has always taken good care of you over the years, and the young master is... the prince owes him, so he will definitely arrange a good future for him."
"I hope so. It would be great if everything could go according to my original plan."
She knew King Yong best. He had many sons, not to mention Zhao Heng.
She always believed that Zhao Heng's best choice was to remain the second son of the Marquis's Mansion.
Then the biggest stumbling block is the Marquis and the Crown Prince.
After Ji Yunshu came out of Yao's courtyard, he asked Lan Yin, "What exactly did she mean by that? It doesn't look like she wants to hand over the housekeeper's power to me."
Lan Yin said, "She doesn't want to hand over power, but she wants you to do the work. She hopes you will be cautious and help suppress the rumors outside."
Ji Yunshu sneered: "What do I have to be afraid of? What do rumors have to do with me? Seriously speaking, I'm also a victim."
At the beginning, many people thought that she was making a big deal out of nothing, and that it was an unwise choice to break off the engagement with Zhao Heng and remarry Zhao Shen for an orphan girl. Now those people have been slapped in the face.
Look at what happened to Wei Yuanmin. Who would dare to say that Yao Ruolan is insignificant and can be suppressed at will by relying on her status as the main wife?
"The Second Young Master has lost his mind. What he's doing won't benefit Miss Yao at all. While the Princess' Mansion certainly doesn't dare to kill someone directly, there are plenty of ways to make someone's life worse than death."
Lan Yin said that she looked down upon Zhao Heng more and more.
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Wei Yuanmin had no intention of taking Yao Ruolan's life, and the princess wouldn't let her take a life. But Yao Ruolan won't have it easy. Zhao Heng should go to the princess's mansion to apologize soon."
"The princess may not even let him in. Princess Huimin has suffered a great injustice this time."
Lu Ru said with a smile.
Ji Yunshu: "...You're right. This matter still depends on Wei Yuanmin's attitude."
She couldn't say for sure what Wei Yuanmin would choose to do.
